It’s very laudable to do what you can and that’s totally fine. Just audio samples and tests with different voices is very helpful when choosing a mic. The more you hear the better.
Thanks for watching! I haven’t used both softwares much, but what I will say is I found Shure’s software is more intuitive. This is a very subjective thing of course, but I remember feeling just a little more confused by Rode’s software. Shure’s software just felt more intuitive for me. Personally I will be using the Rode Unify App as I use the Rode Streamer X and I will be refunding the Shure MV7+ Which setup do you have?
@@leo_hoang Thanks for sharing your experience. My setup is non existent, I'm building a setup (PC/monitor/mic/boom arm) I think I will go with USB mics because I mainly game, content creation or streaming is something I might do just for fun so I don't want to clutter my setup with all that unnecessary equipment, the cost and complexity is also a factor for why I'm avoiding XLR+Audio interface
@@KaledTV yeah, I feel for a very simple USB setup the MV7+ will work great… I just suspect there are cheaper options is all. Have you considered the Rode XDM100? Are you UK based?
@@leo_hoang No I'm not UK based. I have considered the XDM100, actually was one of the most interesting ones I found but many other reviewers complained about the software. I also heard that the Shure MV7 tends to work better while being 1 foot away from the mic in case I don't want it up in my face when I'm playing games, have you found that the MV7 works better than the XDM100 when it's relatively far from your mouth for a dynamic mic?
I didn’t do an A/B test with it on XLR vs USB, but what I will say is listening back to this video to me it sounds quite average and I didn’t get that same feeling as when I compared this via XLR against the MV7X… I did actually pack it up as I was about to return it but now you got me curious, one more test coming up!
@@leo_hoang I feel you, actually I've seen many reviews because I was interested to buy the Mv7+ but basically everyone is a bit disappointed about the usb sound of this + version, even compared to the old Mv7, for some reasons it sound worse, more muffled, I don't think that is an hardware issue, or at least I hope so, but anyway I think I'll just grap the Mv7x, it cost half of the price and with a good audient mkII its still more convenient, that said my only regret would be the mute button that I really would like to have on my mic, especially because this one is very well implemented, but if the sound is worse, a mute button doesnt justified the purchase. Anyway ill stay tuned for your next video!
@@Edoardo-jh9yg yeah the more I’ve tried different mics the more I realise how good of a value the MV7X is… I will try explain more in the video I post… thanks for staying tuned! 👍

Thank you for the kind words… I had to Google what Laudable meant lol… when I first woke up and read that, I was thinking “laughable?” lol
Ok, I'll buy Røde one because it's in sale right now
I def think it’s the better value mic
Which one had a better software in your opinion in terms of ease of use and functionality? Thanks for the review.

on the Mv7+ do you prefer how it sound on xlr or on usb ?
